Siberia Cometh !
Well readers the big big freeze is coming 6 days of snow and -8 at nights. I asked a bulgarian friend to get me some bread from the shop today and he came back with 4 loaves. I now know why !.
It is something of a myth that countries with lots of snow in the winter just get on with it, they dont.Roads become impassable, airports close.Some towns are isolated for days.Then there is the danger of power cuts, which is why one needs a wood burning fire.My village, which is very close to main roads, was cut off for days three winters ago. As long as I have food, heating tv and the internet I dont care though !.
